Is there a way to enter prior payroll if iIdidn't do it right away?

Good day, Anita Buckllin.

I understand that you need to enter your prior payroll data.

It's best to reach out to our Payroll Specialist if you already run payroll in QuickBooks Online. They can process an adjustment and they can enter the data on your account. Simply go to the Help and enter Contact us.

Also, you'll want to check these details to learn more about prior payroll:

• Learn about reports to use to enter prior payroll
• Set up a prior payroll for QuickBooks Online Payroll

Please post again if you need anything else. Have a great day!
